Associated Names
Mark Rothko

Artist, American, born Russia (now Latvia), 1903 - 1970

The image depicts a person from the waist up. The person is seated on a stool and turned slightly to look over their shoulder towards the viewer. The person's face is depicted with minimal detail, including eyes, nose, and mouth, and they have short hair. They appear to be wearing a jacket and a headscarf or similar head covering. The background shows a railing with vertical lines and possibly an architectural element in the upper left of the image, against a plain, textured brown surface. There are no visible jewelry or objects being held by the person.
